Title: Table game system
Inventor: SHIGETA YASUSHI
IPC: A63F1/06
Filed: 2020-12-06
Abstract: A table game system is provided capable of identifying shuffled playing 
cards used at the time of the occurrence of a problem in a card shoe apparatus, 
thereby enabling an investigation of the cause thereof or the taking of 
countermeasurestherefor.  
A card shoe apparatus 2 of the table game system of the present 
invention includes a barcode reader 100 that reads a barcode 3 provided in a 
shuffled playing card set 1s, thereby reading a shuffled card ID that uniquely 
identifies the shuffled playing card set 1s. Also, a lid 2f for enabling the 
entry/removal of the shuffled playing card set 1s is provided in an upper portion 
of the card shoe apparatus 2. A sensor S for detecting the opening/closing of 
the lid 2f is provided under the lid 2f to detect the opening/closing of the lid 2f, 
thereby detecting replacement of the shuffled playing card set 1s. A control unit 
12 further includes a function of storing the following security items in 
connection with a shuffled card ID: (1) a reading error of a code C of a card 1 in 
a cord reading unit 8 (in the case of a false card, the code C is not present in 
the card 1 or a false code C is printed on the card 1, and these will be 
determined as irregular by the card reading unit 8) and (2) replacement of the 
shuffled playing card set 1s (such replacement is determined by detecting the 
opening/closing of the lid 2f).

Abstract: SEQUENTIALLY DEPLOYED TRANSCATHETER MITRAL VALVE 
PROSTHESIS 
ABSTRACT 
A sequentially deployed prosthetic cardiac valve includes a self-expanding frame having an 
atrial skirt, a ventricular skirt, and an annular region disposed therebetween. A first anterior tab 
is disposed on an anterior portion of the frame. A posterior tab is on a posterior portion of the 
self-expanding frame. The frame may be designed so that any portion may expand sequentially 
in any desired order. For example, a portion of the first anterior tab and a portion of the 
posterior tab may partially self-expand first. Next, the first anterior tab may fully self-expand 
before the posterior tab fully self-expands. The posterior tab may fully self-expand next 
followed by the ventricular skirt, or the ventricular skirt may self-expand next followed by full 
expansion of the posterior tab.

Title: Shopping cart monitoring using computer vision
Inventor: CARTER SCOTT J
IPC: H04N5/225
Filed: 2021-03-10
Abstract: A system for monitoring shopping carts uses cameras to generate images of the carts moving in a store. In some implementations, cameras may additionally or alternatively be mounted to the shopping carts and configured to image cart contents. The system may use the collected image data, and/or other types of sensor data (such as the store location at which an item was added to the basket), to classify items detected in the shopping carts. For example, a trained machine learning model may classify item in a cart as "non-merchandise," "high theft risk merchandise," "electronics merchandise," etc. When a shopping cart approaches a store exit without any indication of an associated payment transaction, the system may use the associated item classification data, optionally in combination with other data such as cart path data, to determine whether to execute an anti-theft action, such as locking a cart wheel or activating an alarm.
